    I've never appreciated PlayStation Plus too much, but see below why.

    1) The free full games that are given are only playable while the PS Plus membership is active, and once it expires the games stop working completely.

    2) Offering full-sized games just to play them for 60mins.

    The rest is fine, I'd say, but downloading a ton of gigabytes and then not getting to keep them forever just doesn't seem like it's actually worth it.

    Although, if you look at them as "Rental" games it's all rightey.

    In my case, if they want to give away free full games then let the users who're paying for the membership keep the games permanently not for a limited amount of time!

    Please note: I did experience PlayStation Plus for 30 days (a month) so after the membership ending I have to say I was rather unsatisfied downloading full sized-games just to have them unplayable completely.

    I'm not getting playstation plus , nothing worth getting it for.
    They also claim that you will get into Beta's. I'm in almost all Beta's @ PSN, just add the game studio that is making the game to your twitter & you will get into the Beta's.
    Right now i'm in the Eve Dust 514 Beta. <- Just a quick warning, the game 2,5 gig and once downloaded you will get a message that there is an update. You now have to download another 2,5 gig. :(

    I don't get why Sleeping Dogs demo on PS3 was beyond 2 GB and on Xbox 360 below 2 GB, it pretty much looked the same, with some minor differences. Unless they add unnecessary content to the game just to make it look bigger.

    Anyone remember PSP games? They used to have useless trash just to make the files bigger, once it was removed, it gotten considerably low and the game was all there.

    ive had both consoles and I gotta say ps3 is the worst of the two they've never upgraded to wireless N they release software updates to remove fetures have 13 hour maientance that you cant login the whole architecture of ps3 is a mess god knows what they were thinking when designing it it went downhill since ps2 not to mention sonys increasing money problems they have also xbox 360 seems to run a lot smoother example mw3 will frequently drop to 1-5 FPS on ps3 because of a out of memory issue which is because of its 256mb ram and the higher the fps the better and 1-5 is extremely bad

    PS3 games and patches are always bigger. I kid you not, a 13 MB patch on the 360 will be 150 MB on the PS3.
